About Woodbridge
Woodbridge is a compact residential suburb of Perth located within the City of Swan, approximately 18 kilometres north-east of the Perth CBD. Formerly known as West Midland, the suburb was officially gazetted in March 2001 and takes its name from Governor James Stirling's 1829 land grant. With a population of 1,207 as of the 2021 census and covering just 1.4 square kilometres, Woodbridge is a well-established inner-metropolitan suburb notable for its historic character and riverfront setting along the Swan River.
Woodbridge offers an appealing blend of heritage and everyday convenience, anchored by Woodbridge Railway Station on the Midland line, which provides easy access to Perth's CBD. Families are well served by Woodbridge Primary School and the nearby Governor Stirling Senior High School. The Woodbridge House National Trust property and Woodbridge Riverside Park are popular local landmarks, giving residents easy access to green space and the Swan River foreshore. The adjacent Midland town centre provides extensive shopping, dining, and medical services.
Woodbridge falls under postcode 6056 and is governed by Swan Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Midland electorate.
